Prepare for a Divine Day



If you want to learn how to meditate the first thing you will want to do is make it simple. If the task at hand becomes complicated and lengthy you will probably not continue with the practice.

When I awake in the morning my spiritual practice is to set my day into action by visualizing a light around my body, I then extend it to those I love and then out into the days events. This does not take very long to do. Some practices would encourage you to spend at least twenty minutes in deep meditation but I find that this may not be necessary. If you have already been meditating you may find this practice is set into your energy field and therefore does not need prolonged attention. Sending out the visual thought can be enough.

If you have not practiced stilling your mind through perhaps meditation MP3 or CDs you may benefit by giving the mind 5 to 10 minutes of quite contemplation. Once your mind registers the value of these quite periods you can enter into them to set an intention. It will only take a moment to give a positive charge to your desire and then you can go about your day knowing a bright force is guiding the actions of you and those around you.

As I was walking this morning I listened to a song I had not heard in sometime. It speaks of a melody which is carried by the ones we love. What a beautiful and simple analogy. Musical tones move us emotionally and set a tone for us to follow. When you think of balancing and centering an event, relationship or intention think of it as a melody and notice how easy and gentle the task becomes.
Who or what in your life carries the melody? We do not walk on this planet alone, there is always a song playing, who plays yours? Listen to the lyrics as Patti Austin sings "In My Life".

Enjoy your day from the start to the finish.

How Releasing Baggage Can Clear Your Mind


I’m not talking emotional baggage, though this process will support your emotional health as well; I’m talking about the physical stuff that has been hanging around you for years. Where is it? Is it in the garage, in the basement, in your closet, the kitchen drawers? Do I need to go on? You know where it is and there are also the hidden places that you never even thing of looking at. Now may be the time to clear the clutter and clear your mind. This is a physical process but you will find it can transform into spiritual gifts as well.

This is not a weekend project, it will take months as letting go comes in stages. First you do the obvious, the clutter that you are tripping over in the garage. The garage is where you keep your vehicle that propels you through life. Do you want to move forward? Then you better make a space for that to happen. What is in your garage, why are you keeping it? If it is about money ask yourself will I really use this in the future? Then figure out how much money you are saving by keeping it and does this hold enough value. Is the item you have obsolete, are the ones which are made now more efficient, can you rent one just as easily and not have this old form hanging around?  You make the decision and by looking at each item you are making those choices consciously rather than ignoring that they exist. This form of consciousness will then transfer to other parts of your life which need attention.

Now let’s look at your basement. What is hiding in the corners? How many years do those coats have to hang there before you realize that you are not going to wear them again? You have waited long enough, now they are out of style. How about items left over from an old project, business ideas, or children who have since left the home. The weight of these physical items are holding you back from finding and doing what warms your heart. The mind cannot become clear when it is cluttered with thoughts. It is the same with your physical environment, as you let go of the physical the emotional can release as well which creates a space for new ideas.

Just clean out one corner and notice how it feels. That lightness and clarity that you sense and feel in that small area will give you the initiative to continue with this clearing project. Now your mind can also clear and this clarity will transfer across and into your life.

Next you may want to venture into a place that you spend a lot of time preparing food and nurturing your body, the kitchen. Every time you open a drawer the sight of the clutter in that unkempt drawer is registered into your psyche. I spent time and cleaned out my junk drawer and actually did it twice. The first time it felt pretty good but within a month I again felt the need to rid this drawer of items which I realized were not of use. The second clearing is when it really started to resonate differently when I opened the drawer, I could quite a feeling of accomplishment. It just made me smile to look at it, all neat and tidy.

So often we try to change by reading books, taking seminars and physiotherapy, which all have value but the change happens when movement occurs. Everything has energy and when you just take the time to transfer that energy by discarding the old, unused, obsolete items, all the work you have done with these classes and books begins to take form. Now there is space for your energy field to integrate the information you have stored for all of these years. Then sit back and enjoy the clear view.

Try it and let me know how it works.

Being Psychic is Easier than You Think!

This morning I realized how effortless it can be to be intuitive. For the last week I have been thinking about how I can increase the bookings at my vacation rental home in Denver. I felt if I offered a reduced rate for late bookings perhaps I could increase my income. I jumped (well fell is more like it) out of bed and headed to my computer. I opened up my emails and there it was, someone who needed a rental next week and she was asking for a reduced rate and she was offering just the price I had in mind. Wow, now that is manifesting.

Being intuitive and applying your psychic abilities can become second nature when you allow yourself to become aware of what you are thinking. Thoughts have power and you can put them to your advantage when they are positive rather than letting them become blocks when they are negative.

Place Your Desires Out Into the Universe
Next time you desire to have a thing in your life which is constructive and will not harm another put your psychic charms to work. Keep a clear picture of what having this thing will look like and most of all feel like. Take the thought from your mind and place it out into the Universe where it can magnetically draw to you the people who can make it happen. Then sit back and allow the flow of the Universe to bring it to you.
